I was watching Gunsmoke today and David Carradine was co-starring in the show “Lavery”, Season 16, Episode 22, February 22, 1971. It made me remember how much my dad and I enjoyed watching him as Kwai Chang Caine, on the show Kung Fu. I thought I would write about his career and odd death.

The Munsters is a classic American TV sitcom that aired from September 24, 1964, to May 12, 1966, on CBS. It was created by Norman Lear and Al Lewis, alongside Joe Connelly and Bob Mosher, who were also behind Leave It to Beaver. The show stood out as a family-oriented sitcom but with an intriguing twist—its central characters were all friendly monsters living in a suburban environment.
I watched the 1934 the Universal Pictures psychological horror movie “The Black Cat” on Svengoolie. It stars two of the greatest in horror, Béla Lugosi as Dr. Vitus Werdegast and Boris Karloff as Hjalmar Poelzig. This was the first of this pairing with seven more movies to come. Black Cat was the number one movie for Universal in 1934. They hyped the move as an Edgar Allan Poe story but actually had little, more like nothing, to do with the famous writer. The name on the posters and other promotion certainly helped the movies appeal.
